Happy Valentine's Day!

Today big guy had a party in his class.  I was the first parent to arrive, as usual, but was able to help set up some stuff from the party and fix the streamers that had fallen.  After ten minutes some other parents started to arrive.  big guy was at my side and ready to party.  we all washed our hands and then got down to eating.  Big guy mostly ate grapes, cherry-yogurt covered pretzels, cheese puffs, and juice.  We sat next to some of big guy's friends.  Then after about 45 minutes of continuous eating, big guy got up and started running in circles through the room doing some high pitched joyous squeals.  Then a bunch of his friends starting running after him making similar noises.  I looked at one of his teachers and asked if big guy was usually in charge of this kind of silliness.  And she gave me a big smile and said, Uh-huh!

Following our departure, we decided to head outside and jump in some puddles.  Big guy also brought the snow scraper on our adventure.  And through dipping the bristle side into the puddles, he began painting the water onto the dry sidewalk.  Then he looked at me and said, "I painting!"  oh- so precious.  He was drawing circles on the sidewalk and loving life.  Then we headed inside after falling down on his knees.  We changed  our wet and muddy clothes and waited for hubs to get home with some dinner.  We had chipotle, one of big guy's new favorite restaurants.  Big guy ate a huge cheese quesadilla.  And then proceeded to have a valentine's feast.  five hershey kisses.  More mommy.  a mini chocolate bar.  more mommy.  blue lollipop.  Which I then had to pry from his mouth at bed time because his tongue, lips, and teeth were bright blue! Overall, a great valentine's day!
